As to interracting with refs - unless you know them, it's best to be like a child - "don't speak unless spoken to" (especially on the clock).
Be ready to help when needed (and if the refs are working a ton of AAU games, they'll be grateful for the help), and just stay focused in the game.
What everyone else has said here for clock is great - just be careful on made free throws - don't start the clock when the trail (near the midcourt line) official puts his/her hand down.
On the book - USE PENCIL!, especially if it's your first time. Always compare the book with the unofficial scorebook (if there is one), and if you are unsure of anything, get the ref's attention to get it checked out. Remember - most mistakes can be corrected, IF they are discovered soon enough.
